Kylee's 9th Birthday Party

We celebrated Kylee's 9th birthday last Friday along with all the third grade girls from her school. She had a Hawaiian party complete with shaved ice! (yum!) It was the perfect kick off to summer since it was also the last day of school for them. The kids of course had a blast! Micah was obsessed with the baby chicks that they just got in and spent most of the night peeking into their coup. Ella had fun hanging out with the big kids and competing in the sack races :)

Ella the ballerina

Ella had her first dance recital this weekend and she did great! I don't think there is a word to describe how adorable she was up on that stage, I almost started crying! I was so proud of her! I unfortunately can't post the video since the dance studio is very strict about doing that :( I can however, post a few pic of Ella after the recital.

Ella wouldn't smile, I think she was exhausted ;)

Micah turns 2!

Our baby boy turned two this weekend! It's crazy how now that he is two he seems so much older to me. He is talking so much more and understands everything we tell him. He really isn't a baby anymore :( He is the craziest little boy but can also melt your heart in an instant! Every time he walks by a flower, he stops, picks it, and hands it to me and says "here mommy!" Is that not the sweetest thing ever?!? I love my little boy so incredibly much.
We had a toy story party for Micah since he loves "Woody Buzz!" He had so much fun and loved all his new toys. He got a phone call from his great grandma in California and got to have "Happy Birthday" sung to him through skype from Grandma and Papa! My parents are so good at staying involved in our kids lives even though they live so far away. I love that the get to skype with them a few times a week. The kids love talking to them and Ella even knows how to call them herself :) Thank you Great Grandma, Grandma, and Papa for making his birthday extra special!
